Pros

It's a smooth ride, and a beautiful car.

Cons

The Parts are bloody Expensive

25

I Wouldn't Really Reccomend It. — It has issues. The engine has a random misfire, the breaks have gone bad... really really bad... once... blew the lines, ABS and Traction Control is screwing up... But it keeps on trudging on and does not seem willing to give up, such as many cars I've owned before
